Do Not Fear

Do Not Fear, For I am right here. Darkness may seem close, But the light shines brighter. Evil may have lived. But it no longer has stuff to give. Stay true to your heart. Stay here where you belong. Do not fear, For I am right here. The monster is gone. Along with the flight. No longer here to string you along. And no longer to give you such a freight. No more will he take given life. No more will he take the happy and cheer. Do not fear, For I am right here. Quiet child, No need for the fight. For you are finally safe and sound. Stay here, for day is light. Feel free to do as you please. Feel free to enjoy the breeze. Do not fear, For I am right here. Let your strings of hair, Flow backwards with the wind. Let me see your pretty smile, Let me see your glistening eyes, As they capture the moment. Even just for a second or two. Do not fear, For I am right here. Before the day is done, And the children come in from fun, And you start to feel tired. Lean your ear in and Freeze. For a moment or so And remember this phrase- I love you, my dear. And please do not fear, For, after all, I am right here.
